Question

In "Denying an Appeal for Freedom," ________________________ argued that Black people "are not...included, and were not intended to be included, under the word 'citizen' in the Constitution."

Answer 1

Justice Roger Taney

Step-by-step explanation:

"Denying an Appeal for Freedom," shows us the Scott v. Sandford that happened in 1857, when Dred Scott moved with its owner to Illinois, a state where slavery was prohibited. Scott then filed for justice, for freedom, since he was living in a place free of slavery. His request was denied mainly because of the opinion of Justice Roger Taney, who claimed that Scott could not file a court order, since blacks were not citizens and this service was only available to citizens. Since, according to him, no black person, being a slave or not, should be considered a US citizen.
